Title: LiteCoin Install Problems Post by: sandy56 on November 20, 2015, 04:34:53 PM I downloaded the LiteCoin wallet and installed it. At that time it asked for a data directory location which I selected. At this point I realized my selection was a mistake and I uninstalled it and deleted all the files. I then reinstalled it only to find that this time it did not ask me for a data directory location and I ended up now with a repeat of what I just had. Again, I uninstalled it and deleted all the files. I posted this message on the litecoin website several days ago and have not received an answer. How can I correct this?

It saves the location into the registry (probably in user\current\software\litecoin") which it doesn't remove when you uninstall it.

I found the registry entry at Computer > HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Litecoin I deleted the key and then the reinstall went ok. It is so common problem that when programs are uninstalled they leave remnants behind there should be a law against it. Thanks again. |
